THIS pamphlet is issued by the Trustees of the Metropoli- 
tan Museum of Art in response to many inquiries which 
have been received as to the system followed in the ar- 
rangement and cataloguing of the books and photographs 
in the library of the Museum. To the two authors belongs the 
credit of having worked out, each in her respective department, 
the method of classification which is set forth in the following 
pages, and which has successfully stood the test of an experience 
that has included rapid growth, the transference of books and 
photographs from small, cramped quarters to the ample space 
provided in our new library, and a constantly increasing use on 
the part of students and other visitors.

CLASSIFICATION 

FOR 

PHOTOGRAPHS 



INTRODUCTION 

THE Library of the Metropolitan Museum of Art contains 
a collection of photographs of Architecture, Sculpture, and 
Painting, and of all creative work that may be included 
under the term Minor Arts, or Decorative Arts. The 
collection had already grown beyond the number of 15,000, and was 
being used by a variety of art students, archaeologists, connoisseurs, 
collectors, and craftsmen, when the work of classification and cata- 
loguing was commenced. Several librarians and collections of photo- 
graphs were consulted, and each system of classification was found to 
differ from every other according to the class of students that used 
the photographs. In view of the breadth of this collection, and the 
wide range of students that were likely to consult it, the need became 
increasingly evident of a classification that should be logical and con- 
sistent, simple and easy of application, and entirely comprehensible 
to anyone who should use the photographs for any purpose. It was 
to satisfy these requirements that this classification was arranged, and 
it is now published, together with notes on cataloguing and all other 
points connected with the handling of photographs, in the hope that 
it may prove useful to the growing number of art librarians and teach- 
ers who desire help and information, many of whom have sought such 
help at the Metropolitan Museum. 

The more important steps in the care of photographs are taken up 
in the order in which they naturally follow one another, the explana- 
tion of the Classification being placed at the end of the Introduction. 

Purchasing 

The majority of the photographs in this collection have been pur- 
chased of the foreign dealers in person, not ordered by mail. Valua- 
ble notes on this subject and on the mounting of photographs will be 
found in the preface of a pamphlet entitled List of Photograph Deal-

4 introduction: photographs 

ers, compiled by Miss Etheldred Abbot (1907), and obtainable of 
Miss Hooper, Librarian of the Public Library of Brookline, Mass. 

Accessioning 

All photographs are accessioned before they are mounted, in large 
books that contain 5000 entries each. Every left-hand page is num- 
bered for forty photographs, and the items are entered under these 
headings, running across both pages: Accession No., Class, Artist, 
Subject, Original in. Photographer and Number, Process {i.e., kind of 
print). Size of Print, Size of Mount, Cost of Print, Cost of Mount, 
Source (gift or purchase), Where obtained. Remarks. The ac- 
cession number is written in pencil on the back of the photograph, 
whence it is transferred by the mounter to the mount. It is then 
written in ink on the paper label after it is pasted on the mount (see 
below), and on the back of the main catalogue card (p. 9). Each 
lot of photographs should be accessioned as soon as possible after it is 
received, and the date of accessioning noted in the extreme left-hand 
margin of the page. Experience has shown that it is more practicable 
to keep accounts of expenditures for photographs and mounting in a 
separate book, in which the itemized bills may be entered entire, 
rather than in the Accession Book. 

Mounting 

Notes on mounting will be found in the pamphlet referred to 
above (p. 3). All mounting for this collection has been done with 
entire satisfaction by the Rose Bindery of Boston, Mass. Dark 
mounts, known as stone gray and steel gray, have been used in prefer- 
ence to the light gray, as they harmonize better with the tones of the 
photographs and are less easily soiled. For some of the larger carbon 
prints, brown mounts have been chosen. It is of the greatest impor- 
tance that the mounting should be well done in order to prevent warp- 
ing, and that the mounts should be light in weight, thin, and flexible, 
yet tough. 

Labeling 

The photographer's label is removed from the print in most cases 
before mounting, as it is often inaccurate and always unsightly. This 
fact and the dark color of the mount, which makes writing on it illeg- 
ible, necessitate the pasting of a white paper label on the back of each 
mount, in the upper right-hand corner. The following forms were 
adopted, (i) for Architecture, (2) for Sculpture and Painting, (3) for 
the Minor Arts. The labels measure 2% x 3M inches. 

The paper of the labels is thin, and the paste (Higgins' Photo 
Mounter) is applied as lightly and as dry as possible to prevent its 
curling the mount.

LABELS 



6 introduction: photographs 

The blank lines of the label are filled in with information necessary 
to identify the photograph. In the case of this collection, where the 
photographs had to be labeled and stacked for use before they could 
be catalogued, brief information taken from the Accession Book was 
written in pencil on the labels, and a tentative class and division 
number assigned. After each photograph is catalogued and finally 
classified, information corresponding with the catalogue card is 
written in ink. 

Stacking 

The photographs are stacked in oak cases especially designed tor 
this collection. As will be seen from the illustrations, a case has one 
vertical partition and three horizontal shelves. Each of these six 
divisions has its own door, which opens downward to the horizontal 
and provides a shelf upon which to draw out the photographs. In 
each division are upright partitions forming fifteen compartments, 
with a card holder above each one and a card indicating briefly the 
contents of the compartment. These card holders are of brass, and are 
attached to the outside of the shelf doors in such a way that the con- 
tents of a compartment can be read before as well as after the shelf 
door has been opened. That is, the card holders for one shelf are 
placed on the lower part of the door of the shelf above it, the upper 
row being placed on the case itself, beneath the top moulding. Each 
door is held firmly in place, when closed, by a steel bar that slides 
through its upper edge into sockets in the case at either end, and is 
operated by a knob in the centre of the upper panel of the door. One 
compartment easily holds from 45 to 50 photographs, so that the 
capacity of the whole case is between 4000 and 4500, there b^ ^ 90 
compartments in a case. These cases hold the three smaller .^ of 
mounts, II X 14, 14 x 18, and 18x22 inches. The photographs are 
stacked like books; that is, they stand on end and the class numh ts 
read from left to right, the photographs facing to the right so th. ' the 
class numbers are easily seen on the white labels in the upper rigut- 
hand corner of the back, as above noted. 

For mounts larger than 18x22 inches, another specially de- 
signed case is provided, with shallow sliding shelves and dust-proof 
double doors. The photographs are laid flat and face down, with 
the white label conspicuous in the outer right-hand corner of the 
back. To protect the face of the lowest photograph a sheet of 
paper or pasteboard should be placed on the shelf.

CATALOGUING 

The work of cataloguing photographs if done thoroughly is 
necessarily slow. It is well to start out by doubting the accuracy 
of the photographer's label in the case of paintings, or at least be- 
lieving it to be wrong until it is proved right, not only by the gallery 
catalogue, but also by careful study of the best authorities in art 
histories, monographs, and periodicals. For identifying architec- 
tural photographs, Baedeker's Guide Books are most useful. Once 
this research work is satisfactorily accomplished — that is, the gal- 
lery and artist attributions determined — the actual work of print- 
ing the catalogue cards may be done. The neatest, clearest, most 
compact and uniform cards can be printed on a typewriter, the 
Hammond being used here. For use on this machine, the cards 
may be fairly heavy, and should of course be without lines, with 
the exception of top and left-hand margins. 

In cataloguing, the aim should be to make each card describe 
the photograph sufficiently to identify it and to show its position 
in the case. Unnecessary and complex details that distract and 
confuse the layman (such as size and kind of print, photographer, 
etc.) should be omitted, as they can be found in the Accession 
Book, in the rare instances when they are desired. If no Accession 
Book is used, the items can be entered on the back of the main cat- 
alogue card, in such a way as not to interfere with other entries 
noted below (p. 9); or, better, on the back of the shelf-list card, 
which is blank. 

Architecture 

The method of cataloguing each class of photographs should be 
in harmony with the scheme of classification. That is, on the 
main card for a photograph of a building (Architecture), the first 
word on the top margin line is the name of the city, as in this 
classification the photographs are arranged alphabetically by cities 
under the different country divisions, as will be seen later (p. 16). 
Next follows, also on the top line, the name of the building, given 
either in English or in the language of the country, according to 
best usage, as found in Baedeker's Guides. On the second line, 
indented five spaces (about one-half inch), should be shown the ex- 
act part of the building represented in the photograph, using al- 
ways first the general term Exterior or Interior. It is desirable 
also, for the sake of alphabeting together the cards for all views of 
the same part of the building, to state next whether it is west side, 
or apse, or south aisle, or court fafade, etc. For example, we have 
a photograph showing a part of an exterior doorway of Chartres 
Cathedral, and the card reads as follows:

CHARTRES, Cathedral of Notre-Dame. 



Exterior, north transept, porch: coving 
of east side of central doorway.

CARD FOR architecture: FACE 

On the reverse of the card, where it can be read without being 
taken from the tray, are printed the accession number and a list of the 
subject headings by which this photograph is represented in the cat- 
alogue. The purpose of this is, of course, to make it possible to 
remove from the catalogue all cards for one photograph, in case of 
additions or other changes.

Architecture, Gothic, in France. 
Sculpture, Gothic, French.

CARD FOR architecture: REVERSE 

It is essential to make subject style cards for every important 
building to accommodate students in the history of architecture who 
wish to see many examples of a style, but do not know in what places 
they exist. Also, in the case of the photograph under consideration, 
for students of mediaeval sculpture we make a subject card under 
Sculpture, Gothic, French. 



10 



introduction: photographs 



The subject catalogue should be regarded as a supplement to the 
classification, and therefore of great importance. For any classifica- 
tion can arrange the photographs in but one order; and whereas it 
may stack together, as in this case, all details of Chartres Cathedral 
and be satisfactory for a student of architecture, it can not also keep 
in one class all examples of Gothic sculpture, most of which exist as 
adjuncts of the cathedral architecture of the period. Any features 
of the building that may interest an architect, or perhaps assist in 
identifying some other photograph, are also noted, such as towers, 
rose windows, doorways, balustrades, and particularly any ornament 
characteristic of a style. Again, for the student of sculpture or icon- 
ography, the subjects of reliefs and statues are entered in the subject 
catalogue. For each building a card is made, giving the historic 
style, dates, names of architects, etc. 

Only one photograph is represented on each [main card, except in 
the case of a duplicate, when the words "Same, another copy" are 
added two lines below the first entry, and its number is placed in the 
margin opposite. On the contrary, a subject card may represent the 
entire series of views of one building, when the form is as follows:

Painting and Sculpture 

The artist cards (that is, the main cards) for painting and 
sculpture have much the same form as an author card for a 
book. Preceding each artist's cards in the catalogue is a biography 
card which gives his full name, dates, school, and all variations 
of his name. The first line of the main card contains the artist's 
name, the best known form being adopted, and only the initials of his 
given names. The second line gives the title of the picture or piece 
of sculpture, in English with rare exceptions. The gallery in which 



introduction: photographs 



1 1 



it is found is placed two lines below the title. Below this may be 
placed a brief note as to disputed attribution or other facts that would 
help to identify the photograph. Cross references are made from 
unused forms of the artist's name, and rejected attributions, as well as 
secondary artist cards in the case of "joint authorship." Gallery 
cards are made for painting, sculpture, and the minor arts, as well as 
subject cards. As in cataloguing architecture, the accession number 
and list of subject headings are printed on the back of the card, and a 
painting and all its details may be entered on one subject or gallery 
card. 

A few typical examples may be given.

Works by an unknown pupil, follower, etc., of an artist are ar- 
ranged immediately after his own works by adding a figure to his 
Cutter author number: i for Copy of, 2 for Pupil of, 3 for School of, 
4 for Follower or Style of. The card is written as shown on page 13. 

In the case of paintings and sculpture by unknown artists, the 
photographs are catalogued and stacked under "Master" or "School," 
with a sufficient addition to the Cutter number representing these 
words to keep all of one school and century together. The first line of

the card would read: Master of Flemalle, and the class and author

number would be M423FI; or, School (Painting, French) of Amiens, 

375 
15th century, with the number S372Am5; or School (Sculpture, 

231 
Greek) Archaic, with the number S3722, assuming that Greek sculp- 
ture by unknown artists is divided into (i) prehistoric, (2) archaic, 
(3) 5th century, etc. In the case of Egyptian (and Assyrian) sculp- 
ture where no artists' names are known, the author line of the main 
card reads: Sculptor, Egyptian, i8th dynasty. The class number is 

221 
18 , with additions in the second line to group together all sculp- 
ture from the same local school or of the same provenance. 

Wherever necessary, cross reference cards should be made, as: 
Painting, French, see School (Painting, French), etc. Cards with 
lists of artists in the various schools, of whose work photographs are 
to be found in the collection, may be kept in the catalogue if desired, 
as: School (Sculpture, Greek) 4th century B.C., see also Bryaxis, 
Damophon, Lysippus, Praxiteles, Scopas. The names should be 
written in a column and arranged alphabetically. For the larger 
schools, as the Florentine school of painting in Italy, lists on sheets of 
paper would be preferable, if it is desirable to save space in the cata- 
logue case. 

Minor Arts 

The name of an artist is rarely known in connection with 
any of the Minor Arts. The important items are the craft and 
the style (locality and century, or smaller division), as will be seen in 
the notes on classification (p. 18). The author line on the main card. 



14 



introduction: photographs 



therefore, gives the kind of work, the country, and century, as: Goid, 
Egyptian, 12th dynasty, the word gold being understood to mean 
work in gold, or goldsmith, as author. The second line gives the 
name of the object, followed by a description suificient to identify it, 
and its provenance, in most cases. The gallery is given two lines 
below the title, as in Painting and Sculpture.

Subject cards are necessary for the name of the object, as Chair, 
Chippendale; or for the class of object, as in this case, Jewelry, 
Egyptian. Provenance cards are similar in form to subject cards. 
Artist cards, where the artist or maker is known, have the form 
of secondary artist cards, given on page 1 1, and the gallery card is 
identical with the sample on page 12. 

A shelf-list card is made for every photograph. Its form is 
similar to the main card, but the title is much simplified, and the 
accession number is printed on the face, in the lower left-hand 
margin. The back, as noted above (p. 8), may give items of 
size, publisher, etc., if desired. These cards are of course filed by 
the class number and are kept in catalogue trays separate from 
the main catalogue. 

CLASSIFYING 

As was said in the beginning of the Introduction, the aim of this 
Classification is to be simple and logical, yet comprehensive enough 
to cover all forms of art in all countries. 1 1 is not especially designed 
for the archaeologist, who would place together all Greek art from 
architecture to terracottas; nor for the student of mediaeval art, 
who would place together everything of one style from a Gothic 
Cathedral to a panel of Gothic wood carving. This arrangement, 



introduction: photographs 15 

though it has undoubted advantages, would not be convenient for the 
student who is interested simply in architecture or in wood carving. 
Experience has shown that it is more practical to give to each class of 
the arts its own number and to subdivide it by countries, depending 
on the subject catalogue or one's knowledge of art in general to bring 
together all the work of one nation or one period, as it is manifested 
in various forms of art. 

All creative work in the arts was easily divided into nine main 
classes (p. 21), and each class of such work, whether of the architect, 
the silversmith, or the furniture designer, was considered by itself as 
showing a somewhat continuous development from the pre-Christian 
era to the present in the important countries of the world. It re- 
mained to arrange a system of notation that should express this inde- 
pendence of the arts, and yet serve to trace their development and to 
show the influence of the art of one nation upon that of its neighbors. 
A decimal classification with a figure notation was adopted unhesi- 
tatingly as being the most elastic and the clearest to write and to read, 
as well as the most logical means of emphasizing or subordinating 
points. Thus Architecture stands by itself as 100, and work of the 
silversmith by itself and yet subordinated, under 560, that is, the 6th 
section of Metal Work, 500. 

It should be kept in mind that for the general public a simple geo- 
graphical and alphabetical arrangement is undoubtedly best suited. 
Beginning with the pre-Christian era in Asia, the art of Architecture is 
divided into two great time-periods (ancient and modern) and by 
countries, following in its main outlines the progress of civilization, 
while at the same time keeping together countries that though unim- 
portant are contiguous to those of greater prominence. Similarly, all 
classes of the arts are given the same chronological and geographical 
sequence. In this way, each art or craft in each country has been 
assigned a separate number, regardless of whether any examples of it 
exist or not. The dividing line between ancient and modern is drawn 
at about the beginning of the Christian era. Inasmuch as the pagan 
influence actually extended beyond the year i a.d., Roman art and 
Early Christian art overlap in point of date, but all late Roman art, 
being pre-Christian in style, is classed as ancient. All Roman archi- 
tecture in Europe, for instance, though it may date in the early cen- 
turies A.D., is numbered 130. No further chronological or style divi- 
sions are made in the main classification, as of Romanesque, Gothic, 
and Renaissance in architecture, or of Schools in painting, since they 
would tend to destroy the simplicity of the original scheme and inev- 
itable confusion of styles would arise. The subject catalogue is so 
arranged as to group the architectural photographs by styles (p. 9) 
and lists of painters and sculptors grouped by schools are kept easily 
accessible (p. 13). The secondary division of all arts is therefore in- 



i6 introduction: photographs 

dicated in the second line of the class number, as will be explained 
below. 

Architecture 

To classify architecture further under the country division, the 
most obvious method is an alphabetical arrangement by cities, 
since styles are disregarded. The second line in the class number 
therefore stands for the city, the Cutter three-figure author table 
being used here as well as for the names of the artists in painting 

132 
and sculpture. Thus classic architecture in Rome is R763 ; in Nimes, 

135 
(France) it is N7 13. 

The third line of the class number must provide an individual 
number for each building in a city and for all of its details. For this 
purpose buildings of a kind are grouped together, and at least 100 
numbers are available for each group, as follows: 

100 General views, city walls and gates, bridges, aqueducts, 
triumphal arches, fountains, and monuments (if not 
classed as Sculpture). 
200-400 Ecclesiastical architecture: temples, churches, chapels, 

convents. 
500-600 Educational institutions: schools, museums, libraries, 
700 Institutions for public amusement: theatres, amphi- 
theatres, gymnasia, baths. 
800 Municipal and commercial architecture, hospitals, etc. 
900 Domestic architecture. 

For example, a comprehensive view of the Roman amphitheatre 

135 
at Nimes has the number N713, and other views or details would be 

702 
703, 704, etc., or if desired 7021, 7022, etc. So far as possible, all 
views of one side of a building are kept together, and a detail next to 
its whole, for convenience in careful study and comparison. The 
main fafade stands first; then, if the building is a church, the south, 
east, and north sides follow; and views of the exterior all precede 
those of the interior. 

Painting and Sculpture 

These arts under the different country divisions naturally group 
themselves by artists, and the alphabetical sequence is adopted, dis- 
regarding school groups. The artist's number is of course obtained 
from the Cutter table, and is placed in the second line of the class 
number. Notes as to the disposal of unknown artists will be found 



introduction: photographs 17 

under Cataloguing (p. 12). Paintings (and drawings) by a given 
artist are grouped by subjects, and then by museums arranged al- 
phabetically by the name of the city. The groups are nine and 
each group is divisible into 100, as under Architecture. 

100 Old Testament and Apocryphal subjects. 
200-300 New Testament subjects and Christian mythology. 

400 Classic mythology, legend, allegory, history. 
500-700 Portraits. 

800 Landscape and marine. 

900 Genre, still life, animals, hunting scenes, etc. 

No definite rule for the numbers assigned to the different museums 
can be established, but some estimate of the probable place in a group 
occupied by a given city can be formed from the position in the alpha- 
bet of its initial letter. Thus, van Dyck's Pieta in Antwerp is num- 

374-1 374.1 

bered D994, and his Madonna and Child in Paris is D994, where 

209 330 

Antwerp being near the beginning of the alphabet has a number near 
the beginning of the group 200-399, and Paris being past the middle 
of the alphabet is placed past the middle of the group, which is 300. 
In the case of the great artists, an estimate of the numbers needed for 
a city can be made from lists of their works found in monographs. 
Here, again, details of a painting are numbered to follow the whole, 
either by consecutive numbers or by adding i, 2, 3, etc., to the num- 
ber of the whole painting. The former method is preferable and usu- 
ally possible, except in the case of an overcrowded group. In case of 
too great overcrowding, however, it would be permissible to extend 
one group into the next; for example, the portraits by van Dyck can 
be numbered 500-800, since no provision need be made for landscapes 
by him. 

Under Christian sculpture the subject groups are nearly parallel 
with those under painting; but in classic or other ancient sculpture 
some such grouping as the following is suggested: 

100 Male divinities. 

200 Female divinities. 

300 Mixed groups of above. 

400 Mythological figures: heroes, centaurs, nymphs, etc. 

500 Athletes. 

600 Portraits. 

700 Grave reliefs (if merely inscriptions, they are placed 

under Stone Carving). 
800 Votive reliefs, contracts, etc. 
900 Genre, animals, and miscellaneous. 



i8 introduction: photographs 

Another possible group division for sculpture is into statues, statu- 
ettes, busts, reliefs; but there would still remain a need of subject 
subdivision, and for the sake of uniformity as well as convenience the 
subject division is made directly under the artist division. In any 
case, all sculpture as well as all painting is arranged by museums 
alphabetically within each group division (p. 17). 

In classifying Greek and Roman sculpture inevitable difficulties 
will arise, many of which will require an individual solution. Only 
broad outlines of methods can be given here, but with these clearly 
in mind it should be fairly easy to settle each question as it presents 
itself. It is important, for the sake of being consistent and therefore 
comprehensible, to remember that the first line of the class number 
should represent the art and the country; the second line, the artist 
or century-school (and sometimes the provenance; see p. 14); the 
third line, the subject and museum. 

Minor Arts 

Many collections of photographs do not give a separate classifi- 
cation to these arts, placing them as architectural details or as a kind 
of sculpture. In view of the growing importance of the crafts in the 
modern world, and their recognized place in ancient and mediaeval 
times, it seemed imperative to assign to each of them a section 
in this scheme of classification. The wide range of work covered 
by the term Minor Arts makes it impossible to give more than 
very general directions for their classification. The main idea of the 
division of the arts into sections will be seen in Table IV. Materials 
are considered as governing processes, and a section is in some cases 
named by the material, meaning of course all objects made in that 
material. Work in metals (500) has to be divided into sections ac- 
cording to the various metals or materials, while work in wood (600) 
can be divided directly into groups of allied objects made of wood. 

Following the method of grouping the architecture of a country 
by cities, and the painting and sculpture by artists, the first subdivis- 
ion of a minor art should be into such groups as the nature or histori- 
cal development of the art may suggest. This will in most cases be 
by time-periods, in order that one may see together all the Greek pot- 
tery (483. 1 ) of the fifth century, or all French tapestries (827.5) of the 
sixteenth century, or all English household furniture (657.7) of the 
eighteenth century. In the latter case a primary separation into 
chairs, tables, beds, desks, etc., with a secondary division by cen- 
turies or shorter periods, is possible, but the first suggestion seems 
more worthy of approval, and is certainly more consistent with 
methods adopted in the other classes. The figures used in the second 
line of the class number must of course represent the development 
of the art in historical order, and its phases within the century divis- 



introduction: photographs 19 

ions if necessary. For instance, a simple number sucii as 160, 170, 
180, may be used to denote the i6th, 17th, and i8th centuries a.d. or 
the dynasties in Egyptian art. The provenance of the object or any 
variation in the style of the century, as governed by different local- 
ities, artists, or schools in the country, may be indicated by a figure or 
letter in place of the o. Thus, most of the 18th-century domestic fur- 
niture in England naturally falls into groups as the work of Chippen- 
dale, Sheraton, or Hepplewhite, and the numbers may be accordingly 
184, 186, 188, allowing i8i, 182, 183 for earlier 18th-century work, 
and 185, 187, 189 for furniture in the style of these designers. 

The third line of the class number is used as before to group all 
examples of one style or period by subjects and museums, and to give 
to each photograph an individual number in that group. Thus the 
subject-group divisions of English 18th-century domestic furniture 
by Chippendale would be into chairs and sofas, desks, tables, beds, 
etc. Supposing chairs are assigned the first three groups (100-300), 
then the chairs by Chippendale in the South Kensington Museum, 
London, would be numbered about 250, and the whole class number 

657.7 
of one would be 184 . Similarly, work in the metals can be roughly 

257 
grouped as architectural, sculptural, for church use, for domestic 
use, for personal use or ornament; and the group numbers assigned 
as above. 

Even with the scheme of classification in mind, it is not always 
easy to place each photograph in its proper class at a glance. A 
carved door, for example, may be most interesting as a piece of wood 
carving, and yet, if the photograph shows the frame of the door or 
other architectural features of the building, it will be more logical to 
class it under Architecture, as a detail of the building, than under 
Wood Carving. Whichever class is decided upon, however, it is 
always possible by cross references in the subject catalogue to place 
the photograph theoretically in the other class or classes, and thus 
provide for it several points of contact, as it were, by which it may 
be reached, according to the varying needs of the public.

CLASSIFICATION 

FOR 

BOOKS 



INTRODUCTION 

THE following classification was prepared originally for use 
in the Library of The Metropolitan Museum of Art, with 
no thought of its publication. So many inquiries have 
been made, however, as to the Museum's system of ar- 
ranging books that it was finally decided to have it printed. 
Having stood the test of five years' use in a growing library, it 
is now presented in an elaborated form with the hope that it may 
save others the labor of classifying and reclassifying under an in- 
adequate system. 

Little explanation of its use is necessary, as it is based upon the 
decimal system, a form of classifying which Melvil Dewey has 
made familiar to all librarians — indeed, Architecture has, with slight 
alterations, been reprinted from his decimal classification, by per- 
mission of the publishers, Forest Press, Lake Placid Club, N. Y. 

The Cutter numbers alluded to throughout the classification refer 
to the C. A. Cutter Alfabetic Order Table. 

Numbers have been used for Ancient Art and letters for Post- 
Christian Art, for two reasons : in this day of departmental 
libraries it seemed well to have Ancient and Modern Art independ- 
ent of each other; at the same time a greater uniformity could be 
secured by giving a full number to each division of the classifica- 
tion, which this plan enables one to do. 

The table in front gives the scheme entire. It may be used in 
that form by those who wish a simple method. In our own ex- 
perience we have found that too simple classifying produces a com- 
plicated appearance upon the shelves, and so, although it involves 
more labor on the part of the cataloguer, we recommend the am- 
plified form which will greatly facilitate the work of the reference 
librarian and present a comprehensive shelf arrangement to the 
reading public. 

The table of "Subdivisions for close classification" is to be re- 
ferred to in each class since in the main work only numbers 7 and 
8 (for special works) have been elaborated. 

Ancient Art has been arranged by countries for the sake of the 

33 



34 books: introduction 

Egyptologists, and the Greek and Roman archasoiogists, who ex- 
pect to find all works relating to their particular studies together. 
On the other hand, Post-Christian Art has been arranged under 
subjects with period and local subdivision, for the reason that 
requests from students of modern art are invariably for access to 
the books on painting, ceramics, furniture, etc. — never for all of the 
works on the Byzantine, Gothic, or Renaissance arts together. 

There is a difference of opinion as to the historic development of 
art in general, different branches and styles of art following indi- 
vidual lines of development. Yet it seemed wisest to sacrifice ac- 
curacy in this direction to the uniformity of the general scheme, 
since the classification is not a history of art but a working plan to 
simplify, as much as possible, the problem of the librarian and to 
present the contents of the library to the reader in a way that may 
be readily grasped and retained.

SUBDIVISIONS 

FOR CLOSE CLASSIFICATION 

POST-CHRISTIAN ARTS 

the following main divisions are to be used 
in each class 

01 Bibliography. 

(Local division if limited to the art of one country. 
The Bibliography of an artist goes with his work.) 

02 Dictionaries of Terms. 

(For Language dictionaries, see 130-138.) 

03 Encyclopedias. 

04 Philosophy, Esthetics, Principles. 

05 Technique. 

06 Essays, Lectures, etc. 

07 CoMPENDS, Outlines. 

08 Education. 

(Local division.) 

09 Biography. 

(Local division.) ' 

(For dictionary Biographies only, e.g. — Allgemeines 
kiinstler-lexicon is A09. Cean-Bermudez, J. A. Dic- 
cionario . . . de los . . . profesore ... en Espana 
is A09.2. 

Bryan's Dictionary of painters and engravers is E09.) 
Local collective and single Biographies are classed 
with local Histories, e. g. — 
Brinton, Chr. Modern artists is E10.9. 
Morelli, G. Italian painters is Ei i. 

For single Biographies add the Cutter number from 

artist's name to class number, e. g. — 

Symonds, J.A. Thelifeof Michel-Angelois Ci 1M58. 

Sy6 
In cataloguing we follow the Dewey rule of entering 
a book under its author's real name rather than his 
pseudonym, but on an artist's card we use the most 
popular form of his name and make references from 
all other forms. 

53 



54 



CLASSIFICATION FOR BOOKS 



A card giving nameSj dates, and school of an artist 
is placed in the catalogue before his subject cards, 
e. g.: 



Correggio, 1494-1534. 

(Allegri, Antonio) 
Italian painter, Lombard 
School. 



O 



Allegri, Antonio, 1494-1534 
called, 
Correggio 



Painters - 


— Italian (Lom- 


bard School) 




see also 


Correggio 










In filing the latter card ignore the (Lombard School) 
so that all painters may stand together in one alpha- 
betical list.

(11-19 include local collective Biographies as well as 
local Histories, see note after 09. A period division 
is introduced by adding A and the time number, 
e. g. — Freeman, L. J. Italian sculpture of the Renais- 
sance is Ci 1A8. This is followed by individual Biog- 
raphies with Cutter number from the name of the 
artist in the class number and book number from the 
author, e. g. — 
Valerie, F. M. Gio. Antonio Amadeo is CiiAm6. 

V23 
If an author's name begins with X, Y or Z, use V 
instead in Cutter number. Reproductions of the 
Drawings and Designs of a Sculptor, Painter, etc. 
take X for book number, e. g. —

are mainly confined to a particular period and may 
be classed under the period division of the history 
of that art, e. g. — 

Berenson, B. The Florentine painters of the Renais- 
sance, is Ei 1A8 

B45 
Books on a particular school of art are to be classed
